Brett Favre...

Playin' in Purple. Whadda you think?

The Vikings won their division without him, but have been unsettled at the sport’s most important position for the past three-plus years. Quarterback continues to be viewed as one of the team’s few weak spots on an otherwise talent-laden roster.

“It makes a lot of sense because the pieces are in place,” Favre said.

He said he met with a Vikings trainer Sunday to go over some arm exercises as part of his rehab, but the team has not made plans to evaluate his readiness to play. Favre said his conversations with Vikings officials have been infrequent and limited.

“Nothing other than, ‘Are you interested?”’ he said. “And vice versa.”

Not like he'll be hooking up with Randy Moss on the run or anything ... And isn't that the reason given for his early retirement a year or so ago? That he wanted the Packers to go after Randy, and when they didn't and he threatened to walk, he had to back it up after the team went ahead with rebuilding plans, not expecting him to change his mind again and again ... like a girl!

No really, with the Vikes and Packers playing on Monday night October 5 (Norm's birthday), it would be a whole lotta fun to watch, Randy Moss on the field or not.

Get well, Brett ... so the Pack can pound you into the pavement next season!
